a maxi-dress addiction.

THE SEARCH HAS GOT ME HOOKED


I have FOUND a maxi-dress that flatters me! YAY!!!Summer has come to Vancouver....actually not quite yet...cause there is barely any sunshine....and ONLY the annoying mugginess. But HEY, on an optimistic note it is great for strutin them maxi-dresses.

I went shopping the other day and was awe-struck by the summer left-over sales!! Maybe the lack of sun does do some good???? But holy smokes!! Every store had every size (well at least my size....) in every colour, ON SALE!!!
you know.....I have tried maxi-dresses here and there but zero luck. I find the whole process like finding a pair of jeans (incredibly difficult and giving up is not an option). I didn't have a vision on what kind of maxi-dress I wanted, but once I tried this on I was HOOKED.






















maxi-dress: Mink Pink / belt and necklace: vintage / wooden bangles and wedges: ALDO / purse: Louis Vuitton


Here I am wearing a black slip from hanky panky but I can change up the outfit by buttoning down and wearing different coloured bandeau's!!


now to find a colourful patterned maxi-dress.......
YES 
I AM ADDICTED!
and so the search continues....

hair change = make-up change!!!

drastic change? bring it!! 


have you had those moments when you just feel like a CHANGE? change in look or change in SOMETHING? 
well I did, and I wanted a brand new look! I always had long dyed brown hair...but last year I decided to dye it back to....BLACK, my hair color at birth. It was to mark the start of taking life more seriously, whether that be my goals, or my ambitions......but.........
WHAT WAS I THINKING!
 so what did I do?


CHOPPED it and COLORED IT!!!!!















jacket: talula / top: club monaco / cardi: silence and noise  / jeans: american eagle / hat: urban outfitters / jewelry and shoes: aldo / purse: vintage


oh ya and new hair color MEANS NEW MAKE-UP 
DROOOOLLLLL


so here are my new colors, WARM TONES, with that olive color that I'm obsessed with rite now.....
as you can see above....





I love creating your own pallet <3 I bet a lot of you already know this, but for those who don't, at MAC make-up you can pick out your own colors for an eyeshadow pallet!!! You can buy shadows in a disc format and all you do is pop it in the pallet (you buy the pallet only 7 dollars and the eyeshadow discs are cheaper than the single packaged ones...trust me it's a better deal) YOU CAN ALSO keep on changing the color pallet, great for seasonal changes...less clutter on ur make-up table AND great for travelling! so next time you go to MAC, I say do this instead!!!

what has your recent crazy change been? do tell :)

woke up late? that's okay, just wear more!!!!

I woke up late this morning, and was like! AHHH NO TIME TO LOOK PRETTY!!!the question for everyone is, how can you take that situation and still pull off a cute look that seems like you put some time into it?

THE KEY IS LAYERING!!I mean it may only work during the fall/winter time...but even though it is spring....it feels like fall. SO this trick will do for at least a good month! come to think of it, the whole concept of layering is great for seasonal transitions.......hm.....
K back to layering.. what I mean by that is...

for a professional look:  wear a sheer shirt then wear an opened up sheer blouse/dress shirt then wrap a silk scarf around your neck and top that off with a trench jacket or blazer. This is better than just wearing a dress shirt and pants. It actually will feel more comfortable since you will have a cotton shirt on first before you have your structured dress shirt. If you don't have a scarf then spice it up by wearing a shirt that is colorful. If you always wear neutrals, then one day just take a coral sheer shirt (maybe from club monaco) and then a white crisp dress shirt then a beige or grey blazer! and the real cherry on top would be to add a floral scarf! Can you envision this? TRY IT! I swear it will work!

for more of a casual look: similar idea as the above, but you can get WAY more creative!!! anything goes when you layer, BUT what will be real HOT this spring is stripes on floral, solid neons with neutrals and even socks with heels. Ya, this spring many opposites will be put together such as, fabric with leather on boots and shoes. Yes, so today I put together real quickly an outfit, that layers a tank top, with a sheer blouse and then a sweater, with sockies that go beyond my fabric/leather boots!


introducing my doggie, GUS!










 floral tank: talula / sheer blouse: H & M / school girl cardi: Japan / shorts: ZARA / eternity scarf: Japan/ belt and sox: H & M / booties: Aldo / bag: balenciaga

Being a student, I dress like a bum practically everyday, so it makes me happy dressing up over the weekend to go out, and esp. when it's starting to get warm outside, new outfits pop up in my head~!
SOoOOOo I wanted to make a new outfit without really buying anything new.....after some thought......
my first outfit inspiration came from my YSL clutch!
It is my fav color of all time, PURPLE
and what is the opposite color of purple?



YELLOW!!!
and conveniently I have some yellow Micheal Kors pumps to go with it!





and so here it is, a simple outfit I put together! It is cute, warm and pretty casual!
but take the cardi off and u got urself a pretty chic, out-on-the-town on a saturday night outfit :)
